Pressure. Momentum. Legacy. Everything collides tonight at Dodger Stadium as the 2025 World Series hits its breaking point. The Dodgers and Blue Jays are deadlocked at 2–2, each trading statement wins and gut-punch losses through four games. Toronto’s Game 4 victory flipped the narrative, reminding everyone that this series won’t be handed to Los Angeles easily.Now, with Blake Snell on the hill for the Dodgers and rookie Trey Yesavage trying to steady Toronto’s rotation, Game 5 becomes more than just another matchup. From strikeout props to team totals, there’s serious value on the board for bettors willing to read between the lines tonight.Note: Odds are set by DraftKings Sportsbook and are subject to change. No outcome can be guaranteed when betting on sports.Today’s 5 Best MLB Prop Bets for Blue Jays vs Dodgers World Series Game 5#5. Dodgers Moneyline −209Los Angeles is priced as the clear favorite tonight and that’s reasonable: the Dodgers still boast elite pitching depth, steady lineup production at home, and the matchup advantage with Blake Snell on the bump. Books have L.A. clustered in the roughly −200 range for Game 5 based on rotation depth and bullpen makeup after the series’ first four games.At −209, it's buying a market that favors the club with more margin for error and the deeper October resume; it’s the market’s judgment call that L.A. is likeliest to set the tone tonight, though nothing in a World Series is a lock.#4. Blake Snell: Strikeouts Over 6.5 (−128)Snell has been a strikeout engine in October, he’s punched out 32 batters in 26.0 postseason innings this month and his high-spin breaking ball routinely forces swings and misses.Snell’s history of forcing long counts and generating whiffs makes 7+ Ks a very reasonable expectation if he repeats the command that carried him through the postseason.#3. Freddie Freeman: Hits + Runs + RBIs 2+ (−117)Freddie Freeman is the kind of middle-order bat who creates multi-category nights whether by a double-and-an-RBI or a homer-and-a-run and he’s shown he can produce in October, including delivering a walk-off in the series earlier.Freeman will get premium plate appearances and protection in the Dodgers lineup, so a 2+ combined H+R+RBI line is realistic and it doesn’t need a moonshot, a two-base hit and a run scored, or a single and an RBI, will do. The negative price reflects the crowded high-leverage usage he sees in the middle of the order.#2. Total Runs: Over 8 (−101)This series just produced an 18-inning classic and a 6-2 follow-up, and that volatility plus tired bullpens tilts the board toward at least one multi-run inning tonight.When relievers are taxed and both teams have pushed their pen usage, a single mistake from a starter or a shakier middle reliever often produces multiple runs.Combine that with two powerful lineups and the World Series tendency for momentum swings, and Over 8 is a reasonable, situationally supported lean at the price shown.#1. Trey Yesavage: Outs Recorded Over 13.5 (+100)An Over 13.5 outs ticket requires Yesavage to record at least 14 outs, which is approximately 4.2 innings, a sensible target given his postseason workload so far, with 19.0 postseason innings across 4 starts, meaning Yesavage has averaged about 4.75 innings per outing this October.At plus-money, it's getting paid to back a rookie who has regularly eaten into the middle innings this postseason; the real risk is an early hook if he loses the zone, but the underlying numbers support a decent chance he clears 14 outs again.
